(Beaver Falls, PA) Authorities said yesterday that a suspicious fire at a home in Beaver Falls led to the discovery of numerous dead cats in the basement. According to Beaver Falls Fire Department Chief Mark Stowe, up to 10 dead cats were found in the basement and he believes they were dead before the fire occurred. This incident happened yesterday at a home on Fourth Avenue and when firefighters arrived, they saw several cats jumping out of the windows of the home. This appeared to be a feral cat colony and Stowe confirmed that it all left an odor and the humane society will be on hand today so they can rescue the remaining cats.
